Sneak Peek | Fat Quarterly Issue #4

I am very excited to show a sneak peek of my latest quilt and pattern to be included in Fat Quarterly magazine:

I had a great time working with Kate Spain's new "Central Park" line for Moda, and with the issue's focus on working with solids, I was pleased to find 4 shades of shot cottons to coordinate with the prints.

Issue 4 will be released this coming Tuesday, January 25th to our subscribers, and available for single issue purchase on Thursday, January 27th. Learn more on our website at http://www.fatquarterly.com.

beautiful!! so this is the design that came to you right before you fell asleep?! Jeez, wish i had visions like this! I love how you used the solids to feature the animal print, and really love the limited palette too. great job, john! can't wait to get the next issue of FQ :)

I love it! I'm using Central Park in a small quilt that I'm working on.......I plan on posting pictures of some of my blocks today :) How fun to see your quilt made with the same fabrics......I threw some Fandango I my quilt too!

Ok, that is fantastic! I have this line for a project that at the last second I changed my mind on and used something else. It is sitting in the drawer calling my name and now I am inspired. I also really like that central block. Can't wait to see the pattern.

LOVE this quilt! That print from central park is one of my new favorites. I wish I could free motion quilt like that... always keeps me from using too many solids since I can really only stitch in the ditch or do diagonal/straight lines. Love the weekly inspiration from your blog :)

This is really beautiful! I like the way you incorporated the solids in with the prints. I think that solids are often forgotten and can be just as important as the prints in creating a balanced design. Well done!

I landed here through a fellow blogger: it always makse one curious to hear of a male quilter, so I had to have a peek right away. You make beautiful quilts! I have to add you to blogs worth following :)

I love your design! And I also love Central Park. I'm using it now in the Postage Stamp quilt along over at PS I Quilt. Looking forward to also starting the Block-A-Palooza today! Thank you all for putting this together!
